TO    THE    PUBLIC. 


The  subscriber  offers  to  the  public  this  little  book,  con- 
taining the  names  of  all  the  cities,  towns  and  post  offices 
in  the  State  of  North  Carolina,  with  the  distances  from  the 
Capital  and  principal  commercial  towns,  together  with  the 
population  of  the  incorporated  towns  of  the  State,  the 
white  and  the  colored  races  divided;  also  the  names  and 
post  offices  of  the  leading  lawyers  in  the  State. 

The  subscriber  has  devoted  much  labor  and  pains  to  this 
work,  and  thinks  it  will  be  very  useful  to  all  professional 
and  business  men,  as  well  as  interesting  to  those  who  pay 
attention  to  the  statistics  of  the  State.  Strangers,  and  the 
traveling  public  generally,  will  find  it  invaluable,  as  it  con- 
tains information  that  cannot  be  obtained  elsewhere.  Care 
has  been  taken  to  ensure  correctness  of  statement,  though 
it  is  probable  some  errors  may  be  found,  which,  under  the 
circumstances,  could  not  well  have  been  avoided. 

Trusting  that  his  book  may  be  favorably  received,   the 
subscriber  has  the  honor  to  be,  the  public's 
Most  obedient  servant, 

J.  S.  HAMPTON.
